Who

Who can be part of the network?

Sandpoint Filmmaking NetworkIt takes many types of skills to make a film. Camera operators, actors, sound and lighting technicians, script & music writers, organizers, and a multitude of other skills are needed. If you have an interest in making films – or even if you just want to practice using the video features of your DSLR camera – you are welcome to join the network.

With the advent of the Canon 5D Mark II in 2008, independent filmmakers around the globe immediately had access to a professional-level tool for capturing great quality high-definition (HD) footage with a beautiful cinematic feel. Since then, the entire independent filmmaking community has changed along with some of the skills required to make great films.

Now every camera manufacturer has a DSLR, Mirrorless or Cinema camera that shoots stunning HD footage and some cameras now shoot 4K video. To say that there has been a revolution in the filmmaking industry would be an understatement!

With the affordable entry price of some of these cameras, even non-professionals (the average camera users) have high-quality video capabilities built into their cameras & phones.

Here a few examples of reasons you may want to join the network:

  1. You are a script writer, music composer or musician and want to connect with independent filmmakers.
  2. You are interested in filmmaking or just using a video camera and want to network with others to help further your abilities, whatever they may be.
  3. You are interested in movie acting and want to find opportunities to be in someone’s film.
  4. You have a skit that was put together for a local theater company that you would like to make into a short film.
  5. You are a film editor, motion graphics artist, or simply someone who likes playing around in iMovie and want to make your skills available.
  6. You just want to be a part of making a film and are open to helping out in a variety of ways.
